I _think_ the reason your screen went away is because you have not correctly set it up in the /boot/config.txt file on the Pi. Take a look here ...

Also, a Linux user's network hooked directly to a cable modem/router? Really?

Did you remember the ssh port is 222 vice 22 ?

​So, here's the update.
I re-wrote the SD card, booted the Pi, text started scrolling on the screen, the ACT LED is lit, the ethernet port LED's are lit, it would appear that the .img loaded and the machine booted up.  Then, the video disappeared.  The Rpi3 is still lit as well as the ethernet port.  "Ok.  I can get around that.  I'll just ssh into the dang thing!" (he said, not realizing his oncoming frustration)

The frustrating part - I tried, for the longest, to remember the login credentials for the cable modem to no avail.

So, I did an 'arp -a' and found the mac addresses for those connected devices on my network.

The only other address that responds to an 'ssh' command, other than this machine (at .106) was one at .103.  However, try as I might, the password "debian" (sans quotes) is not recognized.​  The peculiar thing is, .103 didn't show up in the arp -a list. (head-scratch)
